How can it make it more stealable, your average car thief (pleb) walking past a car would have no idea it had a massage function on the seats or the stereo had extra speakers, the alloys look exactly the same as the 18″, you would have to make a special effort to look on the tyres to know they were an inch bigger, as you say it’s legalised theft but when the government does these kind of things every day they couldn’t give a crap as long as it means more tax for the back pocket!
